Answer:

$f(x)=2x$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

In a direct variation the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope of the line m and the line passes through the origin

therefore

in this problem

$f(x)=2x$ -----> represent a direct variation

When two variable quantities have a constant (unchanged) ratio, their relationship is called a direct variation. It is said that one variable "varies<span> directly" as the other...simply when the y-intercept is zero.

So the best answer is f(x)=2x</span>

30% of Number A is the same as 40% of Number B.

Goryan [66]

30% of number A means

$\dfrac{30A}{100}=\dfrac{3A}{10}$

similarly, 40% of number B means

$\dfrac{40B}{100}=\dfrac{2B}{5}$

These must be equal, so we have

$\dfrac{3A}{10}=\dfrac{2B}{5}$

Multiply both sides by 10 to get

$3A=4B \iff A=\dfrac{4B}{3}$

So, you can choose any number for A, and then you multiply it by 4/3 to get B. There are infinitely many solutions to this equation.

$3a+2b=10 \\\\ a+b=10 \\\\ \boxed{a=10-b} \\\\ 3(10-b)+2b=10 \\\\ 30-3b+b=10 \\\\ -b=10-30 \\\\ -b=-20 \\\\ \boxed{b=20} \\\\ a=10-20 \\\\ \boxed{a=-10}$
